Electromagnetic Radiation Spectrum Poster

SUMMARY

The discussion centers on "The Electromagnetic Radiation Spectrum" poster, which comprehensively displays all known ranges of electromagnetic radiation (EMR), including Gamma Rays, X-Rays, Ultraviolet light, and various radio wave categories. The poster, measuring 24" x 36", features detailed descriptions of EMR properties such as reflection, refraction, and includes a SI units chart. Additionally, the LaTeX and C code used for its creation is available for open-source contributions, and a downloadable PDF version is provided for free printing. However, some users find the poster too crowded and seek simpler alternatives focusing solely on radiation ranges, frequencies, and wavelengths.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of electromagnetic radiation concepts
  • Familiarity with SI units and their applications
  • Basic knowledge of LaTeX and C programming
  • Awareness of audio frequency spectrum
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the properties of electromagnetic radiation in detail
  • Research the creation and usage of LaTeX for scientific posters
  • Investigate simpler visual representations of the electromagnetic spectrum
  • Learn about the significance of the cosmic microwave background radiation
USEFUL FOR

Students, educators, physicists, and graphic designers interested in the electromagnetic spectrum and its visual representation will benefit from this discussion.

You may find this poster of "The Electromagnetic Radiation Spectrum" of
interest.

http://unihedron.com/projects/spectrum/

This poster includes all known ranges of EMR including Gamma Rays,
X-Rays, Ultraviolet light, Visible light, Infrared, Microwaves, Radio
waves (ULF, VLF, LF, MF, HF, Long, Short, HAM, VHF, UHF, SHF, EHF), Cosmic
microwave background radiation, and brain waves, all organized by octaves.
The audio frequency spectrum is also included. Descriptions are included
for of all ranges and properties of EMR including reflection, refraction,
LASER, television, emission and absorption, also a handy SI units chart
from yocto to yotta.

The size of the poster 24" x 36".

In the spirit of open source, the LaTeX and C code used to generate this
poster is also available. I encourage you to make comments or additions
for the next printing. The poster is also available as a PDF file that you
can download and print for free.


Have fun,

This has all the info. claimed and that's a problem. It's too crowded. Does anyone know where I can get a long poster that is simple - just radiation ranges, frequencies and wavelengths?
